Remainder of 2012 Recap!

Happy New Year!!

I can't believe it but I have been here for almost 6 months!  It has definitely gone by fast.  Since I have been a little lax about updating my blog (ie. work has been kicking my butt), I thought it would be good to have short recaps of the trips we took since the last time I posted.  For Christmas and New Years we took a 2 week trip to Thailand to visit family there.  If anyone wants to know more about the places I went to, just leave a message on my blog post.

I am definitely looking forward to what this year will bring!  Just need to get through this busy season (next four months)...

Here are a recap of the trips that we took since the last time I posted:

Budapest, Hungary - 3 day weekend 

Szechenyi Thermal baths - it was like a big heated swimming pool
We took a Danube river cruise

Old city of Buda

Cork City & Day tour to Ring of Kerry:

We went to Cork for a three day weekend and took a day tour with Paddywagon from Cork to the Ring of Kerry.  It was great, we had such beautiful weather!

Munich, Germany:
In December we took a 3 day weekend trip to Munich, Germany to see the Christmas Markets and to see Neuschwanstein.  We planned the trip ourselves and took a train to Fussen and a bus from Fussen to the castle.  It was extremely cold and snowy there!


Mmm, that beer was bigger than my head!

Neuschwanstein!
 Thailand:

We had such a wonderful time in Thailand!  The weather was very warm and the food was cheap and delicious.  Connor was able to see my side of the family over there.  We celebrated Christmas and New Years there and stayed in Bangkok, Koh Samui, and Pattaya!  I will have to load more pictures from our trip later.  The computer is being slow.

Happy New Year 2013 Friends!!
